Biography

Andrew B. Karoly 'Andrew Karoly': A Hungarian born painter and etcher of figure studies, landscape and city views, Andrew B. Karoly studied art in Budapest before the outbreak of World War One. After the War ended in 1918 he began to produce paintings and etchings of scenes in Italy, Germany and particularly, France. It is believed Karoly came to live in New York around 1920.
  During the years of the Great Depression (1930 - 1939), Andrew Karoly worked on a number of art projects commissioned by the Works Progress Administration (W.P.A.), including several large, public murals. At this time he often collaborated with another well known Hungarian/American painter and etcher, Louis Szanto. Today the etchings and paintings of Andrew B. Karoly are included in many American collections, such as the University of Delaware.
